Lingering on with the tenacity of a coma patient.*

[bending_sickle]

I haven't really done anything today. I woke up waaaay late (but then again, I went to sleep at 4 am) and read fanfic, had lunch, read s'more, watched Bones, read still more and then here I am.

Yeah, that was a day well spent.

Which, ok, maybe it was, if I didn't have to fill out a funds form, an application form, prepare for the oral exam on Tuesday (i.e. re-read really boring stuff), organize internship things like references and so forth. And that's just academic stuff. I still need to pack stuff away into various crannies, iron about 3 washing-machine loads, buy things for the holidays... And then there's fanish things, like fics sitting there all mopey and sad, unwritten, and so on.

However, reading-wise, it was so totally worth it. I've been reading leonidaslion's Suit!Verse series (Supernatural, Evil!Sam/Dean, post-apocalyptic). And man, I've been reading it like my breathing depended on it. It's really really good and handles the slow mental breakdown just this side of fantastically. I'm almost done reading all there is :(

If I were a caterpillar (or Mohinder), I'd be wrapping myself up in a cocoon right about now. Just want to lay about and do nothing, really. But first, there's a fic I have to finish reading.

I Love the Tone That's In Your Laugh

I like black and white.

The first time, in your backyard
(hey, ain't life wonderful?)
they broke off the locks and they opened the doors
looking for something I've never seen.

I took a step outside:
Some things in life are bad.

My boss, he's a probable bore
I'm a weaver, a Calton weaver (I'm a rash and a roving blade).
Clever got me this far.

Where do bad folks go when they die?
I'm coming 'round to open the blinds.

We never need forgiveness:
everyone's right and no one is sorry.
Angels smiling on my happiness:
It's coming up (it's coming up).

Move over, move over (yeah you heard what I said, move over).
I'm on my time with everyone
if I kiss you where it's sore.

I was always late; you never afraid.
